THE DEADLOCK BROKEN.

Reading Strikers Again at the Post OF
Duty-Busy Loading and Unloading.
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 2S.-The order for
the striking employees of the Reading COM
pany to return to work, issued yesterday
morning, came rather unexpectedly, though
desired by the majority, and there was
lack of spontaneity in the return to work.
This was not due to an unwillingness on the
part Of the men, but TO delay in the circula-
tion of the general order to reiun, coupled
with the fact that the disaffected were rather
late in putting in an appearance at their
usual places Of rendezvous. However, sufii-
cient men responded at an early hour to
handle what little coal there was on the
tracks, and more, too, for many had to be
put to work at odd jobs until some of the
side tracked fuel came down the road.
1t will take three or four days to open the
present coal blockade as all the side tracks
between the anthracite regions and Philadel-
phia are crowded with cars. On sidings be-
tween this city and Port Clinton there are
1900 cars, representing 10000 tons Of coal,
waiting to be moved. Below this city all
sidings are occupied by loaded and empty
trains. At the Reading freight station there
has been large accumulation of business,
partly due to the strike and partly due TO
several days suspension over Christmas.
But the handlers were busily engaged yes
terday in loading and unloading cars
1t was anticipated that some trouble might
occur at the Port Richmond round house
yesterday afternoon, and for this reason
about twenty detectives were stationed In and
about Superintendent Flicker's Office About
O'Clock they were Joined by Capt. Linden,
Of the Pinkerton detective agency, but nc
disturbance whatever occurred Police
Captain Quirk was also on hand with squad
of thirty uniformed policemen. They were
stationed in the round house and along the
tracks at different points, but were moi
called into service

A Yateran'a Death.

LANCASTER, Pa, Dec. 90. - Yesterday
morning the body Of Bricklayer Benjamin
McCabe, whose homo is at South Chester,
was found under the bridge crossing Cones
toga creek. Nobody saw him fall into the
creek, but the supposition is that he was
under the influence Of liquor, and while
crossing the bridge fell In. His head struck
the rocks below, and his skull was fractured.
His death resulted from the injuries received,
and not from drowning. The dead man was
a member of the q. A. r. He leaves widow
and five children.

were taken off by the steamship Ethelbald
and safely landed in this city. The lost yes
sci was commanded by Capt N. b. Pharo.
She sailed on Nov. 20 from York river for
Wilmington, Del, and her cruise was un-
eventful until Friday last, when she was
sighted in the Roads and disappeared under
full Ill out on Chesapeake bay. According
to the captains story the hurricane set in
about sundown on Saturday and swept
everything from her decks The men suf-
iered terribly from privations and cold, and
one OF them, James Lemhart, went raving
mad, The vessel sprang a leak and was SO
full Of water that she sank shortly after the
| men were taken off.

pipe was afterward broken. He did not
know that it was used for anything after
that. The works had drained into the canal
when he was there. At the close of the
inquest Mr.. Beckley, the representative Of
the Vacuum Oil company, asked an adjourn

engagement. Mr. Van Voorhis, the attorney
for the coroner, spoke of the great wealth Of
the Standard Oil company, and warned the
